Over the last year or so I had slowly eliminated ads from the site.  I was using some ad services that paid a minimal amount and dramatically slowed down my site.  I couldn’t take it.  They looked like crap usually too.  Since then I’ve received a few offers for ads, but most looked awful or were not suitable.  Recently though the fine folks at Woodzee (wooden sunglasses) wanted a spot and also wanted to offer my readers (you rockin’ folks) a free gift certificate.  So I said what the hell.  The glasses were kind of cool – I mean wooden sunglasses – rad.  Also they plant a tree for every pair they sell.  I can get down with that.  So if you want to be entered into this two week contest for a $50 gift certificate to Woodzee, just email me at [email protected] with “FREE MONEYS” in the subject line.
